World Domination Day 1....of to NY!

Wow. It is so much easier to fly on Porter.
(Where is my sponsorship, Porter?)
I am sitting in the super fancy waiting lounge ..I was two hours early...imagine.
It is so convenient, really.
(Again, sponsorship..)
I am just all a flutter.
I was up late packing after having a rehearsal in Niagara on the Lake with the young Wayne Gwillim...oh...the fun we had....
By the time we drove back and I packed the rest of my stuff it was late!
So, I slept for 6 hours and the last dream I remember is ...are you ready?...that I was Carrie from Sex and the City (one of my fashion influences...suck it...she is....) and I was on a ship that was going down...ug...but just before I exited the ship...fighting for my life...out on the deck to find Big (played in my dream by my fabu husband) I stood in front of a mirror clutching my strand of pearls, looking at my Audrey Hepburn hairdo
(I fucking kid you not!) and telling myself...are you sitting people?....
"Don't forget to smile and don't forget your style!"
Seriously!!!
I am a rhyming crazy lady, even in my dreams.
I don't know about the whole "ship going down" business...maybe stress...YA THiNK?
Anyhow, I woke to a long email from my PR dude Donald and he has my tonight all planned, he has me visiting Jim Caruso's Cast Party at 9:00pm, A quick PR meeting at 9:30pm to 10:00pm, Don't Tell Mama's next and if we have time a place called The Town House, a "chic gay piano bar!"...
I am just a bit overstimulated already.
What will I sing?
What will I say?
And most importantly...What will I WEAR?!?!?!?
George could not drop me off so I asked one of the fabulous Sharron's Army...a private actually, Sharron's Private...AHAHAH!!! Love that....I asked the dear Michael Hughes...who said yes RIGHT AWAY!!! What a good friend! He never stops helping the WD cause!!!

I am waiting...I am gonna read my trash novel now...there is a woman on the cover with a bodice ripper dress on....it is called "Taming the Highland Bride"....ooh my lord. There will be some sex, I am sure.
Here we go people!!!
You all helped to send me on this journey!
I thank you!
I will write every day...and take pictures...and when Wayne, Derrick and George get to NY...there will be video!!!
Stay Tuned!
Goodbye TO.
See you soon!

The Last two weeks of TV....series enders! BEWARE! Contains SPOILERS!

I really do.
I fucking love the TV.
I love that, growing up, my mother could be standing RIGHT BESIDE me asking me where my sister was and I didn't hear her at all....I have never had a problem escaping into the boobtube.
(I always thought that title was so titillating....hahhahah...

.AHAHAHAHHA! EFF off people, it is healthy to laugh...even at one's own jokes.)
I have been so wrapped up in the World Domination thing that I needed my TV escapes in the last couple weeks.
I have to say, I HAVE NOT been disappointed.
Only one small hiccup.
DO NOT READ ANY FARTHER IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED THE ENDINGS OF GREY'S, SURVIVOR, CELEB APPRENTICE OR LOST!!! I DO NOT WANT TO SPOIL THIS SHIT FOR YOU!
The Survivor Finale.

At the beginning of ever season I plant myself on the couch behind my computer and announce to my husband that I WILL NOT be watching this season. Then I watch it. I announce it EVERY time....except this season.
When I heard about the Villains versus Heroes....oh lord...I got so fucking excited!!!
It really fulfilled it's goal. Those villians were HORRIBLE. Awesomely Horrible.
Did you watch Danielle's fake boobs get more and more pronounced as she lost weight? They were GROSS!
And Parvati....every time she did that smile and that giggle/laugh... I turned to George and said "I hate that bitch."
But she played so well...
And I hated almost every snivelling little shit on the Heroes team...Rupert of the Gross Toe...he was a asshole of the first degree...
James...who I used to love...what a fucking abuser...and a control freak...and that stupid Amanda who cried over everything and had the balls to steal the idol from Danielle of the Wrinkle Boobs but did not have the "what for" to keep it.
And Colby...oh my god...what a mess...how did he stay till the end?
Hated the Heroes.
Hated!
BUT! I loved the Villains ....
Boston Rob...how the eff did you get kicked out...
Jerry... Loved her more than EVER!!!
Sandra...YOU DESERVED TO WIN!!!
Courtney!!!...You skinny bitch, I dug you...
Holy crap people...I even liked that doof Coach...
Who I didn't like...that gap tooth Russell....but it was AMAZING to see him get not ONE VOTE...it was also amazing to see how a person like him is delusional. He still thinks he should have won. Had no idea or refuses to accept that a GIRL like Parvati got the better of him.
I LOVED it when Sandra said that the only people who loved him were 5 people from his family who were in the audience.
I even question THAT!!!
Survivor FINALE= LOVED IT!!!!
The the next finale?
Grey's Anatomy.

Now George doesn't like hospital shows....and especially Grey's Anatomy...I suspect, though he has never said it...that it is the resemblance to a romance novel that offends him....the very thing that makes me love it...so I had the last two episodes in the PVR cue waiting for him to fall asleep on the couch...which he did after playing a long game of Prince of Persia.
I stole the controllers from around his sleeping form and booted that shit UP!!
I cannot even remember what happened in the second last episode....because it paled in comparison to the SLAUGHTER/Blood bath that was the Grey's Finale.
I ain't gonna lie to you...I had seen on twitter that everyone was saying "wow" and "holy crap" and "what the eff is happening?" in response to #greysfinale...and I was intrigued.
When it started and I saw that moustached dude walking down the halls of Seattle Grace I tucked in for a barn burner.
And then that bitchy doctor, Reid is it?, got shot through the head I screamed and George woke up... and he even became interested enough to watch it...
What a great episode...nothing like a good mass murder to tie up some loose ends....encourage people to love each other in the face of death (Arizona and Callie...Christina and Owen)...make people believe in themselves after a period of challenge ( Webber)...and get rid of some extra characters that were cluttered about (all those stinky Mercy doctors)
I loved watching Bailey break down when she realized that she couldn't help that shot Mercy doctor....never liked him, didn't learn his name...and sit there with Mandy Moore...I question why she was in that episode...I also freaked out when Bailey was dragged from underneath the bed...oh lord.
And Webber's monologue to the shooter...Derek's shooting...I knew that crappy weird girl doctor would get him shot...Meredith's pregnancy....It was an amazing episode...
Grey's Anatomy= LOVED IT!!!
Then the Holy Grail.
The Lost SERIES Finale.

I was worried, I am not going to lie to you people.
I was real worried.
I LOVE LOST!
This year I started happy and then got sad...I didn't know what the fuck they were doing...the Temple....bad Sayid....horribly wigged Claire, she a poopy actress, huh?....the sideways reality...I was more confused than ever...and ...I cannot believe I am going to say this...I considered that I might stop watching.... I KNOW!
But I had invested so much...I think the creators depended on this as they tied up a bunch of loose ends...Richard and the Black Rock ship in the middle of the island...the two people in the cave....I didn't even remember that...they had to flash back 4 years for that...Jacob and the other guy and the chick from the West Wing KINDA telling us how it all started....but not really...that Jacob looked like a dick, huh? Why Jack's dad walked...
BUT WTF with the Temple and they guy who pretended to NOT speak english?
WHAT THE EFF is the ISLAND!?!?!?
Oh, lord.
I was so confused...but I was ready to go the distance.
We got home at 12:30pm last night from an excellent party and I began to watch.
I gave up pretty quickly that there were gonna be any answers.
I let it go.
But I got sad.
I hate the ending of just about anything...a great movie, a good book....but I felt like I knew these people...that is the way I felt when I was young...when Edith died on All in the Family I was inconsolable. And here were all these people with loves and lives....SUCK IT PEOPLE...I have a tender heart!
I was proud of Hurley.
I was almost proud of Ben.
I tried to like Kate again...but it was hard...her character bugged the eff out me.
Why didn't Sawyer take off his shirt...but I was happy when he and Juliette met again...and Jian and Sun...and Shannon and Sayid...BOONE was there...Libby was there but I think they cut her scene with Hurley...Desmond and Penny....oh, the crying...I wept like a 4 year old...I had no idea what was going on....but I wept....
When did they die?
When their plane crashed?
When there stories ended....
Oh...the sadness...yes...
And then Kate changed her outfit!!!
WHY?!?!?!
And...where was Walt and Michael?
Though I was still confused...
Lost SERIES Finale=Loved it.
And then you know what happened?
I was too tired to watch Celeb Apprentice and flicked on TWITTER AND SOMEONE SPOILED IT!!!
I still haven't watched it....but I guess Brett Michels won.

Yes, this guy.
I quite enjoyed watching him on this show...I had never watched it before and George is responsible for the fact that I got sucked it...
I am just glad he beat that Holly Robinson Peete...I am happy that she is helping Autism...that doesn't make her any less a byotch.
Ah well, I guess one outta four ain't bad, really.
And now....what will happen?
How will I fill my evenings and wind down?
After the disastrous last season of "So You Think YOu CAn Dance...." I don't know if I can do it.
Sigh.
Time Well Spent.

May 8th and 9th Buddies in Bad Times SUPERSTAR TORONTO
www.traceynolanstudios.com

It is late at night.
The big dog is leaning against the wall staring at me...and now he lies down and I think about joining him...I am so tired.
The last month and a half has been a whirl wind...and now it is Week 20 of World Domination...how the eff did I get here?
You know what is funny? When I put the down payment on my Edinburgh plane tickets...did you know that you could do that?...the lovely person who found and arranged the deal for me (at a fabu discount) asked if there was a company name I said, of course, Sharron Matthews Superstar....they laughed and I realized that I am so used to saying it that it is like saying... Kleenex Toilet Tissue...do they make toilet tissue?
I have gone from crying in my bathtub when I didn't get the grants to sitting on my couch totaling the cash in my "Superstar:World Domination" account....I have paid a lot of things already but I have raised, with the help of a lot of dear people, just under $20,000.00.
I have $10,000.00 to go.
I just had to stop and breathe.
You see, I tend to just keep going great guns until I reach my goal....I need to be all like the inch worm and stop and see how beautiful the garden is...or some shit like that.
I have hosted a huge fund raiser...I have performed the first stop of the tour...I am less than a month away from Joe's Pub and I just booked the Edinburgh tickets and am putting a down payment on a Scottish flat tomorrow....holy crap bags. AND, thanks to Nada Ristich @ BMO, I just received by first corporate donation.
I have come so far.
It IS NOT even close to being at all easy.
It is fucking rewarding as all get out....when I get to all these places it will be a bunch of small donations that got me there...a community....I appreciate ANYTHING that anyone has done to help...and I have been humbled OVER and OVER again by the kindness of friends and strangers...but it is fucking hard, all day long, work.
Today was one of those days.
I woke to thoughts about where to rustle up the last $10,000.00.
I am trying to stick to my very specific (read CHEAP) budget while finding a place in Scotland...you know how much the cheapest place costs...that isn't a hell hole....about 2800 Pounds....$4100.00 Canadian...holy shit, eh?
I am worried about getting a good place to stay that is not a long walk form downtown as I have to bring my costume to the theatre every night...and it has to be close enough that Derrick and I can run down to the Royal Mile (the hub of the Festival and sell the show and meet other artists and producers) all day long before the show.
The next thought I have is that I have to send out more invitations to New York today...a lot of them.
I have to...I have to...my husband looks at me and I sigh.
I have to take a couple days to breathe.
A friend called today to talk to me and I could not even take the call...I felt a bit overwhelmed by it all...after a big show (and I have done the fund raiser and the May Buddies show with less than four weeks apart with no break in STEAM) I usually take a couple days to just read. That is all.
I buy a really trashy book or two and eat chips and read.
No such luck.
But the shows this past weekend?
Magic.
True magic.
I had such lovely crowds and I loved the songs...the first night I had a whole "Holy shit I am going to take this around the world" crisis of confidence. I felt good about my work that night but I had to fight the jimmy nerves the whole show.
The second night I promised myself I would have fun.
I did.
Both nights were totally valuable for different reasons....mostly because I actually got to sing.
That is what I miss the most during all of this admin work, which, most of the time, I actually quite like...BUT I have to remind myself that this is all about how I want to sing more often.
I am excited that there are so many people getting on planes, trains and automobiles to come to Joe's in New York. I feel lucky that people give that much of a poop about what I am doing.
I feel lucky and a bit exhausted.
I think I need to do some work and cap it off...take the time...just a couple of days.
I am beginning to dread my phone dinging.
I have to have a fresh mind to tackle the last $10,000.00...I have some ideas but I think that if I have a break a will have more.
Mostly, I just want to give George my full attention.
How much can one guy take of the same subject for 20 weeks straight....he truly is the best man.
He is in bed right now.
Sleeping.
I am going too.
I hope you are all well and ...thank you.

I FINALLY WON AND AWARD...AND IT DOES SOMETHING DIRTY!!!

I won an award. THANK YOU Diane Leah. It almost looks like an Oscar... almost.

So...a couple months ago I get asked by the dear Diane Leah (fabulous musical director and head of music at MCC) to sing at a gig...she is very non committal about what it is...where it is...who it is for...that should have been my first clue.
In the next few weeks every time I ask her about it she tells me there is no money...that they were looking for someone wacky...and that it would be great exposure....all my fave things.
(Not my fave things...sarcasm is hard over the intraweb)
But the amazing Ms. Diane Leah has played for guests on Sharron's Party for absolutely free many times...I see no problem with doing this, VERY ambiguous at best, gig.
And Diane Leah doesn't ask for much but when she does...you do it!
So, last night I end up at something called the "Harold Awards".
I had heard about them...they are for the independent theatre artist...so, they were always too cool for me...they are all about being set up and surprised...secrets and lies.
I think that Diane, who has told me not to write about it online and has arranged to pick me up for the night and everything, is either A: Setting up someone else...possibly Louise OR B: taking me somewhere to kill me after.
I am scheduled to sing Bohemian Rhapsody with Diane accompanying.
When we get pulled up onstage...the keyboard is...not a fucking word of a lie...30 keys...it was a perfect mess...we did a comedy show...we tried to cut a verse and the audience said no...Diane was supposed to stop me....and I was NOT to be stopped.
And then Diane presented a Harold Award to me.
The inscription reads..."Named for the Late Harold Kandel, a theatregoer and frequent heckler, this award is for outstanding contributions to Toronto's performing arts scene."
I had an idea it might be something but I NEVER expected it to come from Diane Leah...I didn't even know that she won last year...that is the thing about the award...it is passed down from the person who got it the year before...before her was Leslie Arden and before Leslie...Jonathan Munro. My award started with Don McKellar and went first to Sky Gilbert.
Wow.
I am always honoured to be recognized by our community...and the lineage just makes it all the sweeter.
Diane Leah's respect is something I will hold close to my heart. It was, don't tell, one of the best parts.
That and Keith Cole telling me a story about how when he accepted his Harold award that he was in a sweat shirt covered with questionable stains (think Monica Lewinski's Blue Dress)....VOTE FOR KEITH FOR MAYOR!!!
It is one month tomorrow till my Joe's Pub debut and I FINALLY WON AN AWARD!!!
WORLD DOMINATION WEEK 19!!!!

Me and Grant Ramsay....we celebrate the Harold!!!

And Scroll back and forth between the pics....that is me and one of my dearest friends and supporters Grant Ramsay, by the by....if you scroll back and forth my award gives you the finger.
Perfect.
Don't you think?
And I would be remiss if I didn't say COME AND SEE MY SHOW AT BUDDIES THIS SATURDAY THE 8th or SUNDAY the 9th!!! 8:00pm....
P.S. The raffle prizes are off the hook...opening night tickets to the "Legally Blonde", a subscription to the Harold Green Jewish Theatre, "Pretty as a Superstar" Package that includes Dan Thompson Make Up, Beautiful Jewelry and a Styling and $25 voucher to Fashion Crimes, Tshirts and, of course, the honour of choosing last song!
Come on out!!!

Eddie and Dame Edna and World Domination

I got to see one of my idols in person this weekend.
Okay...I was sitting in the 8th row at Massey Hall...but I could still see him REAL clear...
I never buy tickets to anything...we can never afford them and George loves a good concert, so we have been left lacking the last couple of years BUT when I heard that Eddie Izzard was coming to town I was on it.
Do you know him?
I saw him for the first time when I was on tour with Les Mis. I was in my hotel room in Washington DC, probably eating a piece of Papa John’s pizza...fuck I loved that stuff...and smoking one of my last cigarettes...who knew I could quit cold turkey?...not me....I didn’t even know I was smoking my last cigarette. That sounds like I was going to be shot by a firing squad.
Anyhow, I was watching HBO....god, I love hotel rooms...I do...and there he was...in all of his transvestite glory. He was wearing a blue silk chinese style dress, wide leg pants and a pair of chunky high heels. Doing some of the funniest comedy I have ever seen.
And everyone in his audience looked quite conservative...and they also looked like they were having the time of their lives...how did that happen?
In a culture where the different and the special are not understood... here was someone who was very different and everyone was just....accepting. Because that motherfucker was funny...and smart...and I wanted to be him when I grew up.
Now, here I am over 10 years later FINALLY seeing him live.
He inspired me.
He is my idol.
He accepted himself, clearly, and the fact that he was a transvestite was a simple side bar in his comedy.
LOVE THAT!
I told George before we left on Saturday night to see his show that I was super nervous...he said “Why?”...I said “Because I am so nervous because I am afraid I am so excited that I will pass out and miss the show.”
See, I really like him.
I don’t like anyone like that...except...except...Dame Edna.
The first time I saw her was on a TV program in which she went into people’s homes and went through there dresser drawers in front of a studio audience...funny shit.
But it was her variety show that was my big inspiration...she had on all the stars of the day...and she was glamorous in a tacky kind of way and she made you feel like you knew her...and she was also a dude in a dress...Barry Humphries plays her...but I ALWAYS think of her as Dame Edna.
She is a raconteur...my computer dictionary definition of that word is...a person who tells anecdotes in a skillful and amusing way.
Oh lord.
Doesn’t that sound delicious?
I wanna be that.
I couldn’t (and can’t) wait to see either of these performers again. I feel like I know them. I wanted that. I want that.
So, when I put my shows together they are in the back of my mind.
Accessible.
And FUN!!!
Over the top....and just a bit in charge.
And now here I am...
All of my work has brought me here.
This weekend, yes, Saturday May 8th and Sunday May 9th @ Buddies, is the first stop in my dream tour.
This is the first show of this type that I will do alone in a long while.
I have not beat the shit out of it promo wise...because I thought you all might be exhausted from the Fund Raiser...but this is really the culmination of all of my work....and, oddly, the beginning of the rest of my work.
I am very excited...I have agononized over the set list...that is the thing about this tour...the show will be different in every city....I will do a show specifically for that place.
So, this is special for you guys....as a thank you.
A thank you for your support and donations.
I knew that I would not raise these funds from big dollar donations...although I have had a few larger ones... this tour is happening through $5 to $500 donations...this tour is being built brick by brick and when I get the money to go...and I will....it will be a community that sent me...our community...and I cannot thank you enough.
Thanks for reading all my posts and emails....for not de-friending me, but letting me promote.
Thank you for donating your money, your time, your tickets, your art and your ideas.
The letters you have sent me and the kindness you have shown me gets me through everyday.
God....I sound like I am on my death bed and all serious....
If you have been following along on this journey....it is Week 19 of World Domination...and it has not been easy....and some days have been unbelievable...some have made me lay down for a “mama” nap!
I need about $14,000 more dollars to reach my original goal. With a recent (and very exciting) corporate promise of $2000.00 that puts the total at $12,000.00 left to raise.
I have to give a shake and remind myself that I have raised $18,000.00 dollars....holy fuck doodles.
But I see the total that I need and I begin to work again.
If anyone has an extra $5.00....actually $25.00...COME AND spend $20.00 for a ticket to my dream tour show this weekend on the 8th and 9th...sit with me as I tell you some stories and sing some tunes.
There will be a raffle...there are amazing prizes...the tickets are...WHAT? $5!!!
Buy a TSHIRT and become a part of Sharron’s Army....the tshirts are an easy $20.00 or you can even donate MORE!!! If you donate more than $100.00 you get a tax receipt!
EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS!!!
It is my dream AND GOAL to have the money that I need by the end of THIS month so I can focus on performance and promo!!
When I sat in the audience at Massey Hall this weekend....I closed my eyes and visualized...I visualized the day that I will walk out there on that Massey Hall stage... it will happen.
You heard it here first.
Oprah says it...YOU GOTTA DREAM BIG!
Thank you all....below is the list of Sharron’s Army so FAR!!!
THANK YOU!!! DO you wanna add your name?!?!?!?
